Hello! I have broad childcare experience, including 15 years of babysitting and 5+ years of being an infant/toddler nanny. Also, I was a Teachers Assistant in an infant daycare classroom. Currently, I specialize in infant developmental years and follow the Montessori approach, focusing on stimulating all five senses in daily activities! Although child care is inevitably difficult, I choose positivity daily and can be ready for any challenges that may arise! I am CPR/AED certified and on my way to receiving my CDA (child development associate)
Ms. Ivanna is everything you want in a care provider: warm, loving, thoughtful, patient, innovative, knowledgeable, and intuitive about what the child and family needs. Ms. Ivanna kept up to date with milestone timelines, developed activities to engage my twins in, encouraged both their gross and fine motor skills, proactively put the twins on their new daycare schedule a month ahead of time, and spent as much time outside possible. We are putting the twins in Montessori school and that is the only reason we're saying so long (but not ever goodbye!) to our dearest Ms. Ivanna. I didn't realize when we first spoke that I was connecting with a real life Mary Poppins who was accepting of our family, ready with ideas if I asked for them, and someone who became part of our family rhythm in the most organic way. From an administrative perspective, Ms. Ivanna clearly communicates their availability, any time there's a schedule change (when a train interrupted the commute, I was updated immediately) and cleans the twins dishes and picks up any toy areas. I highly recommend Ms. Ivanna and am ready to provide additional information at any time. If I ever had more children, Ms. Ivanna would be the first person I'd call for help.
